    Next they will target ad-blockers as reducing their income and trying to ban them using the shitty web drm stuff.

      Their ads are natively served so ad blockers already are pretty useless for them already.

        This is why you start using dns level as blocking.

          “Served up natively” skirts DNS blocking. To block FB ads, you need something that handles DOM-level blocking, like uBlock Origin. That said, FB is cancer and I recommend blocking the entire platform, not just the ads.
